Ceramic Artist: Kathy Huckleberry

Kathy lives on Samish Island in Skagit
County Washington with her husband Mike. Kathy is an emerging artist
who is now finding time to pursue her artistic interests after
scaling back from a full-time career as a Database Specialist.

The natural beauty of the islands,
rural life style, and wildlife are inspirations for Kathy's ceramic
vision. Kathy combines a life-long love of nature with the arts,
especially ceramics and glass. She is passionate about translating
the essence of these natural scenes into a style uniquely her own. Her pieces are influenced by the 19th
and 20th century artists who distilled compositions into simpler
shapes and colors, focusing on key elements to create a harmonious
image. Her pieces combine hand made tile with applied three
dimensional sculptural elements to convey depth and visual interest.

Incorporated into her work are custom mixed glazes and fused glass
which further add to their dimensionality.

Kathy is active in the Skagit County
arts community. She helps to organize the twice yearly Samish
Island Arts Festivals and is the communications contact for Skagit Artists Together
(SAT) and Secretary / Web Master for Cascade Clay Artists (CCA).
